Trampoline Accident Claims
Trampolines, and trampoline parks, have become increasingly popular in recent years. Statistics show that in the last three years more than 140 dedicated trampoline parks have opened across the country.
However, with more trampoline parks comes more accidents, and customers being injured. If you or your child have been injured in a trampoline accident that was not your fault, you could make a NO WIN NO FEE trampoline accident claim with MG Legal for financial compensation. Read on to learn more.

Am I eligible to make a trampoline accident claim?
When you are looking to make a trampoline accident claim, you must meet three necessary conditions.
The conditions that must be met to make a trampoline accident claim are:
Another person or company was to blame for your accident, whether through a mistake or an act of negligence

How much is my trampoline accident claim worth?
When it comes to valuing your trampoline accident claim, the amount will vary depending on your specific situation. No two trampoline accident claims are the same, and it will be up to your designated personal injury solicitor to take everything into account and value your claim.
Your trampoline accident claim will be broken down into two different sections, called general and special damages. The special damages in your claim will be worked out on a purely individual basis, and will make up for any financial losses you have incurred as a result of your injuries, such as medical costs and lost earnings. See more on this here.
The general damages will instead be to compensate for the pain and suffering associated with your injuries, and can be worked out by your designated injury solicitor depending on your injuries and the severity of them.

What type of accidents happen on a trampoline?
There are a number of risks involved in using a trampoline, and a degree of injury risk is always present. However, there are a number of scenarios that our injury solicitors would say often occur on trampolines and at trampoline parks.
Some of these scenarios that commonly lead to successful trampoline accident claims:
Protective padding coming loose and sliding into the trampoline springs
People hitting their heads on a non-padded area
Netting coming loose or breaking causing someone to fall off the trampoline and become injured
Two people colliding on a trampoline when the area is overcrowded
Can you sue a trampoline park UK?
The short answer to this question is yes. If you or your child has been injured in a trampoline park accident that was not your fault, and it can be proved that it was caused by someone else’s negligence, then you can sue the trampoline parks through a trampoline accident claim for financial compensation.
What duty of care does a trampoline park owe me?
Just like any other business, a trampoline park owes its customers a duty of care to protect them from injury within the premises. This comes under the Occupiers Liability Act of 1957. Under this legal duty of care, the trampoline park or leisure centre must:
Ensure that all trampolines and equipment are safe to use and are regularly safety checked
Advise customers on how to remain safe on the trampolines and of any risks involved
ensure that all staff are fully trained and that enough staff are on hand at any one time
to control the numbers of people on the trampolines at any one time
if you have been injured in a trampoline park accident in the last three years, and feel that it was caused by a failure to meet any of these necessary requirements, you could be entitled to make a trampoline accident claim for your injuries against the trampoline park itself. Simply get in touch with our trampoline accident solicitors online today here, and hear back from a solicitor within one working hour.
Can I make a trampoline accident claim on behalf of my injured child?
If your child has been injured on a trampoline or at a trampoline park, you could make a trampoline accident claim on their behalf.
This is done through a legal process of a litigation friend, and allows you to complete the process on their behalf, and claim financial compensation for their injuries. To learn more about the litigation friend process, and making a claim on behalf of your injured child, simply get in touch with our personal injury solicitors online here, for a free no-obligation discussion.

Trampoline park accident claims:
When it comes to trampoline accident claims, one of the most common types are trampoline park accident claims. With their sudden surge in popularity over recent years, indoor trampoline parks are becoming common places for children’s birthday parties, and popular activity for children of all ages.
While there is always a degree of risk involved with trampolines, and a chance that you may be injured, there are certain scenarios in which injuries are caused by the negligence of the trampoline park or its employees.
When this happens, and the trampoline park breaks its duty of care to its customers, you could be eligible to make a trampoline park injury claim against them, and claim financial compensation. To do so, you should get in touch with our expert injury solicitors, for a free no-obligation discussion of your potential claim.
Trampoline leisure centre accident claims:
Whether it was part of a children’s trampolining class, gymnastics class, or simply part of a leisure centre kids club, many leisure centres up and down the country offer have large trampoline facilities.
Trampoline accident claims made for leisure centre trampoline accidents are usually less based on crows control and collisions, with usually only one person being on the trampolines at any one time. Instead, they tend to be involving injuries caused by a lack of netting, faulty or damaged trampolines, or children not being properly supervised while on the trampolines.
If you or your child has been injured while on a trampoline at a leisure centre, and it was not your fault, you could be eligible to make a trampoline accident claim with our specialist injury solicitors.
To find out whether you have a valid trampoline leisure centre accident claim, contact our team of injury solicitors online today, here, for a free no-obligation discussion with a specialist solicitor.
Trampoline Accident At Work Claims:
While many people focus on the safety of paying customers, employees owe just as much of a duty of care to their employees to prevent them from injury while at work. If you have been injured in any way while working at a trampoline park, or a leisure centre, and the accident was not your fault, you could make a trampoline accident at work claim today.
This could be made for inadequate training, unsafe working practices, defective equipment, or any other act of negligence by your employer. To see if you are eligible to make a trampoline accident at work claim for your injuries, contact MG Legal’s accident at work solicitors online here and speak to a solicitor on a free no-obligation basis.
Trampoline accident at home claims:
Accidents and injuries on trampolines in people’s homes and gardens are very common. Children can suffer anything from broken bones, to serious head injuries and back injuries due to falling off a trampoline or being ‘bounced off’ a trampoline by others.
They can be extremely dangerous, and safety equipment such as padding and netting should always be in place when children are using trampolines. While accidents often occur, it has to be said that most home trampoline accidents are caused by those involved, and are not eligible for a trampoline accident claim.
However, if you have been injured in a trampoline accident at home, and believe that it was caused by the trampoline itself, such as a defective or faulty product being provided by the supplier, then you might be eligible to make a trampoline accident at home claim against them. These claims can be extremely complex, and require a specialist solicitor, such as MG Legal.
To see if you are eligible to make a claim, contact us online today and speak to a solicitor within one working hour.
Can I Make A Personal Injury Claim If I Have Signed A Waiver?
When you visit a trampoline park, or a trampoline leisure centre, you should be asked to read a document and sign a waiver. This document should outline the risks involved with the trampolines, how to use them safely, and outline the liability of the company providing the service.
However, even if you have signed a waiver in this way, this does not take away your right to make a trampoline an accident claim if you have been injured. Waivers do hold some degree of legality, and if you were to directly contradict the rules established in the waiver, you probably wouldn’t be able to make a claim. Still, if you have been involved in a trampoline accident that was not your fault, and was caused but the negligence of someone else, the waiver has no significance, and you could still make a claim.
If you were not asked to sign a waiver, you can also make a trampoline accident claim for your injuries, and the process may be even less complex than if a waiver had been signed.

Trampoline back injury claims:
Back injuries, and broken backs, can be some of the most serious types of injuries suffered in a trampoline accident. If you have fallen off of a trampoline and landed in an awkward way, you can seriously injure your back. Whether it’s a serious back injury, a moderate back injury, or a minor back injury, you could be entitled to make a trampoline accident claim for financial compensation.
Trampoline neck injury claims:
If you fall off a trampoline, are forced into the netting, or misplace your weight when bouncing, you can seriously injure your neck in many ways in a trampoline accident.
Neck injuries can be extremely serious, painful, and seriously affect your day to day life. Because of this, clients’ neck injury claims are often valued highly, and obtain considerable financial compensation.
